Chapter 244 Are we talking about marriage?
Xue Mei does not want to be criticized and criticized in the house.
What she is about to do - establishing a pharmaceutical research institute, establishing a pharmaceutical factory, establishing a Western medical school, and promoting her a medical industry qualification certificate - is the real shocking thing.
At that time, she had to bear more.
Before she could express her questions, Xiao Jingcheng replied: "Don't worry. There is a yard on the west side of Princess Heshan's Mansion, which accounts for 30% of the entire yard.
In the past, it was the place where the son-in-law's parents lived. It was a bit similar to the inner court and the Eastern Palace, and there was a corridor separated by it. This corridor was built by the princess.
Before I went to the Ministry of Works, I asked the Ministry of Works to re-paint the picture, remove the side courtyard, block the corner gate, and then there were two houses. The other side was still returned to the court and will be rewarded in the future.
Only 70% of the remaining ones are in compliance with the rules as the princess’s mansion.”
Xue Mei: "..."
This person is so rough and delicate. He will think of anything Xue Mei can think of.
Xiao Jingcheng continued, "You live first. If you think it's too small, wait until I find an excuse to come here and give it to you later, it won't be yours."
Xue Mei: "..."
This is too concealing the bell.
Xue Mei couldn't help laughing: "The prince is so considerate."
When she smiled, her eyes were curved, and the corners of her eyes were slightly raised at this moment, a little seductive.
Xiao Jingcheng was satisfied. Although she said that when he was considerate, he was taking advantage of him and regarded him as a junior.
"This is what you deserve." Xiao Jingcheng said, "The court officials did not expect that this place, and because they were too lazy to adapt and were unwilling to take responsibility."
Xue Mei doesn't care.
Xiao Jingcheng took her to visit the new mansion.
The new mansion is located south of the imperial city, about three or four miles away from the imperial palace, which can be regarded as being at the foot of the imperial city. You can get to the palace in a carriage and just one cup of tea.
"The Rui Prince's Mansion is on the north side." Xiao Jingcheng said, "The distance is a bit far. However, it will be much more convenient for you to enter the palace."
The Rui Prince's Mansion, Ancheng County Prince's Mansion, and Xue Mei's second uncle's house are all on the north side of the imperial city, just on the other side of the axis of symmetry.
"It's not too far, it's almost the same as the moment you arrive at Prince Rui's Mansion." Xue Mei said.
According to the time of this era, a moment is half an hour, not fifteen minutes.
The carriage is not fast, and it is really close to half an hour.
"If you ride a horse, you should be faster." Xiao Jingcheng said.
Xue Mei: "Then you are welcome to visit our mansion from time to time."
"I naturally go to disturb you from time to time. Mei'er, I have trained a new group of guards these days, all of which were my former soldiers and returned from defense. There are a total of twenty people, and I will give them to you." Xiao Jingcheng said.
Xue Mei: "Okay, thank you."
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
He was also worried that Xue Mei was afraid that he would take the opportunity to arrange a suspicion. After he had to explain, he would not have any doubts about Xue Mei.
She trusted him very much.
Xiao Jingcheng's heart was incredibly warm, and there was something inexplicable, rippling slightly in his chest, making him feel as if he had drunk wine and was intoxicated.
"Don't worry about these people, they will protect you." Xiao Jingcheng said again, "Since they have given them, they will not pass on information to me, don't worry."
Xue Mei: "I'm not at ease with you?"
Besides, what information can she have?
The two of them were talking and they had arrived.
In the old days, Princess Heshanchang's mansion had a very high courtyard wall, three meters long, as if it was endless to see at first sight; the wall was covered with vines, and the early summer was lush and green vines swayed in the wind.
The door is made of wood, but it is covered with a layer of copper, which looks brilliant and heavy.
There are two big stone lions at the door, extremely grand.
The danmu at the door is very spacious and can accommodate four carriages to park at the same time.
Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng got out of the car, someone inside opened the door and saluted respectfully: "Prince, Prince."
Xue Mei heard the creaking sound of the gate and felt it was very heavy, and the guard guard at the gate was also very thick and powerful, otherwise it would be impossible to push.
She nodded slightly.
In addition to the gate, the threshold is also very high and you need to work hard to get through it.
The more noble the status, the higher the threshold.
Xue Mei did not complain and continued to walk in with Xiao Jingcheng.
There were no people inhabited for several years, but the staff of the Ministry of Works have maintained it well, the courtyard is lush and there is no weed; the red paint on the pillars is bright, not newly painted, with a little trace of the age.
Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng walked in all the way, and the big wall was facing him.
Bypassing the wall shadow, there is an open space at the gate, with a veranda on both sides; along the veranda, there are a row of five main rooms.
This is a place for guests in the outer courtyard.
There are moon gates on both sides of the main room. Outside the moon gate is a small corridor, and there is a row of downward seats behind it, which should be the nighttime place for the servants in the outer courtyard; behind the downward seats is a two-story flag tower.
Xue Mei was particularly impressed by this because there were two hundred huge rooms in Prince Rui’s Mansion, all filled with gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin.
"How many of these are there?" Xue Mei asked Xiao Jingcheng.
Xiao Jingcheng glanced at him and said, "Eighteen rooms."
"Can you know so soon?" Xue Mei was curious, "How did you count?"
"There are certain rules for this, and there are usually eighteen houses in the princess's house." Xiao Jingcheng said.
Xue Mei: "..."
Prince Rui finally made Xue Mei speechless and started laughing.
He had very neat and white teeth, and his smile was particularly sunny, like a cheerful big boy, who was completely different from his silent and cold face.
When Xue Mei always wears filters, she feels that he is very handsome. Even Wen Zhao loses a few points - Wen Zhao is not the same type as him, and Xue Mei does not have filters for Wen Zhao, which is why he loses points.
The two walked in again, entered the Chuhuamen and arrived at the inner courtyard of the Princess's Mansion.
As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he seemed to have arrived at his own home. Xue Mei began to talk nonsense: "At that time, I thought about having a princess's mansion every day to support you as the princess.
Unexpectedly, the princess's mansion has existed, but you can no longer be the prince in my mansion."
Xiao Jingcheng suddenly turned black.
Xue Mei: "At that time, I wanted to snatch Wen Zhao as my husband."
Xiao Jingcheng: "...you are not finished yet?"
"I'm done." Xue Mei stopped when she saw it was ready.
The more Xiao Jingcheng thought about it, the more he felt unhappy. She still had this idea in her heart?
Mingyu is eyeing her, and Xue Mei is still looking forward to taking Wen Zhao in. For Xiao Jingcheng, the current situation is a real internal and external trouble.
And he couldn't have been in Beijing for too long.
The two of them wandered all the way to the main courtyard.
The threshold for the main courtyard is also very high.
Xue Mei: "The threshold of the inner courtyard does not need to be so high, right? Usually I just leave by myself. I have to change this threshold."
"Change, I have to live here for more than two years, it's important to be convenient for you." Xiao Jingcheng said.
Xue Mei: "Two years?"
"Are you not allowed to move to Prince Rui's Mansion after two years?" Xiao Jingcheng said, "Of course, you can live here for the rest of your life, so I can move here."
Xue Mei: "..."
"You said that you want to be Princess Rui, so you are not allowed to regret it!" Xiao Jingcheng added.
Xue Mei: "I didn't regret it, and I still wanted to do it. But it's not something I can decide to be filial."
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
No, is it the same thing when young men and women talk about marriage? They are like buying vegetables. The vendor said they had to buy it if they like it. The customer said they would definitely buy it, but they didn't bring any money...
Is it a disadvantage?
Xiao Jingcheng suspected that he had been fooled by Xue Mei.
